Mike Destep wants to build a home in New Mexico. He also wants to create opportunities for the people who will build his home. Building a sustainable community in arid country calls for innovation and hard work, all of which is available for a price. Drawing from the people of the land, he ventures into pie country and meets incredibly independent women, surprisingly capable men, and potentially deadly enemies. Who is trying to kill him this time? Is it the fiery redhead? The jovial jester? The comic book character? Or is this a serious professional assassin? Who are friends and who are enemies can be a complex question. In an adventure that sprawls across the land of enchantment, Mike, Cissy, Rachel and Keisha from "330" meet a cast of many who toil at the business of life while trying to preserve their own. Mike meets a woman whose strength draws more than just his admiration and he has to confront the question: Are you willing to put your life on the line for her?
